If you’ve been thinking about replacing your water heater, now may be the right time to schedule your installation. Beginning June 1st, water heater equipment pricing is expected to increase due to rising manufacturing costs, material costs, and tariff-related impacts across the HVAC and plumbing industry.
At Johnson’s Heating and Cooling, we want to help homeowners plan ahead, avoid higher costs when possible, and make an informed decision before the price increase takes effect.
Why Are Water Heater Prices Increasing?
Water heater manufacturers, including Rheem, are seeing higher costs tied to materials, production, and tariffs. Many water heater components rely on materials like steel, aluminum, copper, and other metals, which can be affected by tariff changes and supply chain pricing. As these costs rise, manufacturers and distributors often adjust equipment pricing to reflect those increases.
That means homeowners who wait until after the price adjustment may face higher costs for new water heater equipment and related installation.
How Homeowners Can Save Before June 1st
Schedule Before the Price Increase
If your current water heater is aging, unreliable, or no longer keeping up with your household’s hot water needs, scheduling before June 1st may help you secure current pricing before the increase takes effect.
Buy Now and Install Within 60 Days
Customers may be able to purchase their new water heater now and have it installed within 60 days. This gives homeowners more flexibility while still allowing them to act before pricing changes are rolled out.
Financing Options Are Available
A new water heater can be a major home investment, especially when the replacement is unexpected. Johnson’s offers convenient online financing options, helping customers move forward with the equipment they need while managing the cost over time.
Signs It May Be Time to Replace Your Water Heater
Your Water Heater Is Getting Older
Most traditional tank water heaters last around 8 to 12 years, depending on usage, maintenance, and water quality. If yours is approaching that age range, now may be a good time to consider a replacement before prices rise.
You’re Running Out of Hot Water
If showers are getting colder faster or your household is struggling to keep up with daily hot water demand, your current system may no longer be working efficiently.
You Notice Leaks, Rust, or Strange Noises
Leaks, rusty water, rumbling sounds, or frequent repairs can all be warning signs that your water heater is nearing the end of its life.
Your Energy Bills Are Increasing
An inefficient water heater may use more energy to do the same job, which can lead to higher utility costs over time.
Don’t Wait Until Prices Go Up
While industry-wide price increases are outside of Johnson’s control, homeowners still have an opportunity to plan ahead. Scheduling before June 1st can help you lock in current pricing, avoid last-minute replacement stress, and upgrade your home’s comfort and efficiency.
If your water heater has been showing signs of age or you’ve been considering a replacement, now is the time to take the next step.
